Only 20 days after his sacking by Nottingham Forest, Nuno Espirito Santo was back in a Premier League dugout and reminding himself why he returned so quickly. A revitalised West Ham earned a point at Everton, and deserved more after a fine second-half performance. It is a green shoot of hope, which did not look forthcoming before the break when Everton held a lead thanks to Michael Keane's header. West Ham equalised through a superb Jarrod Bowen strike

We couldn't get the last goal and it was frustrating in the second half, he told TNT Sports. They were trying to slow the game down at times. I've never seen a player in my whole life get booked for taking a quick free-kick. I don't know where that rule has come in. Even the stoppage-time, three minutes and one minute I've never seen that in the Premier League in the last two or three years.

Spanish hero reflects on managing during a more austere era at Liverpool and explains why crossing the divide to Everton did not work out

Burnley are seeking upwards of 50m in lost earnings after the club were relegated and spent 2022-23 in the second tier, where broadcast revenues are significantly lower than the top flight. Everton were found to have breached the Premier League's Profitability and Sustainability rules (PSR) and were given a 10-point deduction, which was later reduced to six on appeal.

West Ham United and Everton are prepared to provide Yves Bissouma with an exit route out of Tottenham in January. The 29-year-old midfielder is unwanted at the north London club, and he needs to move on. He has been linked with clubs from Turkey and Saudi Arabia. However, the 2024/25 UEFA Europa League winner has rejected the opportunity to join them, and he wants to remain in the Premier League. He has been frozen out at Tottenham since the arrival of Thomas Frank.

Michael Keane headed over the bar early on off a lovely set-piece cross from Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, while former Villa star Jack Grealish, who created a game-leading five chances, saw a stinging volley saved by Martinez. James Garner set up Keane for another header, but the defender failed to find the target before Youri Tielemans nearly turned the ball into his own net off an Everton corner.

In January David Moyes was appointed Everton manager for the second time with the club one point above the relegation zone. Eight months later and the club have turned a significant corner, avoiding the drop by 23 points, moving to the state-of-the-art Hill Dickinson Stadium and bringing in nine players in a summer of record recruitment. No side have picked up more points than Everton since the start of May, and they sit fifth in the Premier League.

An "exceptional performance" was the perfect way for Ornella Vignola to announce herself on the Women's Super League stage. On her Everton debut against city rivals Liverpool at their iconic Anfield stadium, she scored three goals. The 20-year-old's hat-trick in a 4-1 win was also the first time an Evertonian had scored three in a Merseyside derby since the legendary Dixie Dean in September 1931.

Summer signing Ornella Vignola scored a hat trick on her Women's Super League debut as Everton came from behind to romp to a 4-1 win over Merseyside rivals Liverpool at Anfield. Liverpool, with new boss Gareth Taylor in charge, had taken a 12th-minute lead when Cornelia Kapocs broke down the left before cutting back into the penalty area and drilling the ball in off the underside off the crossbar. Liverpool defender Gemma Bonner saw her effort at the back post from a free-kick pushed onto the bar by a fine reaction save from Everton keeper Courtney Brosnan.

Everton's move to the Hill Dickinson Stadium is set to earn the club an extra 50m in revenue, according to experts. The Toffees left behind their former home of Goodison Park at the end of the 2024/25 campaign and moved into the Hill Dickinson Stadium at the beginning of the new Premier League campaign. David Moyes' side have been going about their business quietly, it must be said, with shrewd additions Jack Grealish and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall impressing already.

When Bayern Munich opted to sell Adam Aznou to Everton earlier this summer, many fans were irate with the club for giving up on another youngster. However, there were some rumblings about Aznous's attitude and work ethic - particularly on Bayern Munich's Club World Cup trip - that might have pushed the club over the edge in determining to get rid of the young left-back.

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

For Everton, the end of last season was all about Goodison Park. With the club's Premier League status secure there was room for sentiment. Everton said goodbye. Now, it's hello time. The first league visitors to the Hill Dickinson Stadium will be Brighton & Hove Albion, who know a thing or two about moving home themselves. After a defeat and a draw respectively on opening weekend, Everton and the Seagulls will be desperate to leave their mark on a historic day.

Tottenham moved to their new Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in 2019 - on the site of their old White Hart Lane ground - after almost two seasons at Wembley. Their first game at the new ground was on 3 April 2019, a 2-0 league win over Crystal Palace. They followed that up with a Champions League victory over Manchester City and league wins over Huddersfield and Brighton. But then they lost to West Ham in the league and Ajax in the Champions League semi-final first leg.
